Reception
"DeccanFilm" rated the film 3.25 star out of 5, and wrote "Bombhaat is a good entertainer for OTT viewers. The work of the director, Raghavendra Varma, as a debutant he was successful to impress the movie lovers with the story and its execution." [7]
Murali Ravi of "Tollywood.net " rated the film 3 star out of 5, and wrote "Bombhaat is a good entertainer for OTT viewers. The performance of Simran Choudhary is one of the major assets of this film Bombhaat. She gets a crucial role but she is highlighted . Simran holds the audience well with her looks. Sai Sushanth Reddy is good in his role. Production values of the film Bombhaat are decent." [8]
Manoj Kumar of the The Indian Express rated the film 1 star out of 5, and wrote "A sci-fi film that neither serves drama nor logic." Kumar opined that the director uses Hitchcock's quote "Where drama begins logic ends" as an excuse "to make an utterly nonsensical movie that neither serves drama nor logic."[9]
The Hindu's Sangeetha Devi wrote about the film that "This isn’t science, just dull and drab fiction."[10] Jahnavi Reddy writing for the The News Minute, rated the film 2/5 and stated that "Bombhaat suffers from clichéd, occasionally cringeworthy writing, that also trickles into the performances."[11]
